Yesterday I have openheartedly walked into the 3rd decade of my life… Happy 30th birthday to me, yay! My life so far has been filled with different doses of joy, laughter and love but also pains, fears and insecurities. And while I have no idea what experiences await me in my 30s and the decades thereafter, I do wish to experience this age with full gratitude and contentment for all I have, than be ungratefully upset as I “age” or become older. Age means life, the more age you experience, the more life you have to live. But whether we choose to live it or just let each day pass us by, is up to us. The clock is ticking. 24 hours each day, 7 days a week, Monday to Sunday, month after month, year after year. Do we choose to live each day by showing love and gratitude for the life we have? Or do we choose to ‘get annoyed’ because we are growing older and reminisce on the ‘good ole days’. All days can be good. Some perhaps might be bad. But why do we choose to waste time by allowing life to pass us by just because we are aging?

Some people have lost their lives when they were your age or younger, some have lost friends and relatives as well and could give anything to have that time with their young loved ones. So why is it that we choose to deny the age that we are at? Or feel upset or annoyed at the fact that we are getting older? Your life is your gift. It is a blessing! Cherish it. So what if we are not multi-millionaires or haven’t had the opportunity to buy a big house or fancy car or travel the world as yet?

But guess what, if we are going to continuously feel upset, hurt or angry at what we don’t have, we will let more life (time) pass us by without experiencing that which we want to experience. For example if we feel ‘annoyed’ that we don’t have this or that, we will continue to experience that lack, but if we raise our vibration to appreciation of that which we do have, and the things we have accomplished so far, then we can start attracting more experiences of accomplishment. Then every day when our eyes open in the morning, we can take a deep breath and offer thanks for this life, keeping in ,mind all the possibilities of what good we can achieve in that day.

Well that is my birthday post for this year. The first time I have actually wrote a blog for my birthday and this is dedicated to all of you who are reading this post. May you feel great about your age, your accomplishments and for the very fact that you are alive!
